Sony has just announced that they are postponing the PlayStation 5 event that was scheduled for June 4. The event has been postponed for obvious reasons. Those reasons, for those unaware, are the numerous ever ongoing protests against racism and cops that believe they have a license to kill.

On June 18, Quantic Dream says that they will release not one, not even two, but three titles on Steam.

"Nanite" and "Lumen" are going to be the new buzzwords for the next few years. Those two terms were the highlight of today's reveal for the Unreal Engine 5.

Destiny 2's Season Ending Live Event was Incredibly Disappointing

You had to be there.

As of 2:31PM (ET) on Saturday, June 6, the current season of Destiny 2effectively came to an end.

The plan was to end the season today at 1PM (ET) with a live event.

Summer Games Done Quick 2020 is Online Only

This move follows a delay until August.

Earlier this year, the speedrunning event that raises big amounts of cash for charity, Summer Games Done Quick, made the decision to delay the event until August 2020.

If there is one thing that everyone was clamoring for, it's more multiplayer modes. That seems to be the idea behind a new mode announcement for SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated.
